ShinobiKnife

It is based on a ninja and his kunai. The kunai was a multifunctional tool from feudal Japan that, besides being a weapon, was used for climbing, digging, or even as an improvised anchor. Additionally, it was simple and practical to carry.

A re-mold of RhinoHorn that shares almost the same base shape with three main differences:

• > It is 1.2 g lighter due to less lower filling, leaving visible gaps between the plastic and the metal.

• > It integrates a kunai design that connects each segment, but it obstructs 4 of the 8 upper hooks.

• > Its lower hooks are sharper.

In general terms, it retains the properties and limitations of RhinoHorn, so we will focus on the changes here. By covering half of the upper hooks, the recoil is slightly reduced if hit from above, but it also loses power and consistency in its impacts.

In contrast, if it manages to hit with the lower part which is sharper, it can generate more intense blows but also higher recoil. So, in general, it makes it super difficult to land blunt impacts by leaving its strongest points at the bottom; this would force you to use medium-high combos to take advantage of them, but in turn, would make it more vulnerable to being knocked out due to its lightness. In very low combos, it will no longer hit as hard as its alternatives, maintaining a considerable recoil that doesn't make it viable for stationary combos either.

Ironically, although BearScratch is lighter, it maintains better aggressive consistency, while ShinobiKnife tries to correct weaknesses of the original mold but ends up aggravating others. Among the main RhinoHorn re-molds, ShinobiKnife proved to be the most limited and least versatile.
